Video: Jonathan Rea pulls the pin

Last month, Ten Kate Honda SBK rider Jonathan Rea had a metal pin inserted in his left wrist to repair injuries suffered in his crash at Imola in September. “There was more damage than they first thought,” describes Rea. “The operation took about two hours instead of one. Basically, the ligament between the two bones was 100% ruptured and the two wires are designed to pull them together while the ligament meshes again.” Last week he had that pin removed. Luckily, there’s video.
